The Pact (2012) – Paranormal Movie Review – Netflix Instant Watch

House of a 1000 Corpses (2003) Rob Zombie’s Best Work Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza I can still remember, how long, I anxiously anticipated this movie. As soon as it hit theaters, my brother Geno and our good friend Steven Joseph Adams went to see it. I can’t believe it’s been 10 years, since we were sitting in Steve’s car […]
All The Kind Strangers (1974) –Suspense Horror Review – Killer Kids
By Melissa Garza Stacy Keach Your Ass is a Peach If I could put my hand in the TV I would reach That’s my poem about the great Stacy Keach’s amazing rear. He starred in this crazy obscure TV movie; and I was delighted that he wore very tight pants. […]
Observe and Report (2009) – Comedy Movie Review
By Melissa Garza I started watching Observe and Report because it was listed under Aziz Ansari’s filmography and I’m officially on the Ansari bandwagon – a couple years too late, but better late than never.

Hollywood Scarefest 2003 –Low Budget Film Shorts
By Melissa Antoinette Garza I admit that much to my own discontent, I can be somewhat of a low budget snob. It takes a lot for a movie with no money behind it to bring me. The acting can be dreadful, the productions often try to be too artsy and […]

Valentine (2001) – Whodunit Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Garza Valentine was released in March of 2001. Horror was in a very strange place at that time. The excitement that the original Scream (1996) stirred had died down in the five years after its release. Whatever enthusiasm remained was destroyed by lackluster and uninspired sequels to not […]
One Step Beyond (1959 -1961) Horror series – Netflix Instant Watch TV Show Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza The Twilight Zone is my favorite television show tied only with Dragnet. Rod Serling is a genius. His brilliance will live on forever as his work is timeless. I am a fan of older TV shows. I enjoy everything from The Honeymooners, I Love Lucy, The […]
Straw Dogs (2011) – Horror Revenge Movie Review
By Melissa Garza Straw Dogs was a movie that for all intents and purposes did not need to be remade. The original starred Dustin Hoffman. Hoffman is one of the greatest actors of all time. He has a subtle approach to his style which brings a level of sincerity to […]
Women In Horror – Asset or Detriment?
Over the years, the roles of women in horror movies have significantly changed. Some would argue that they are much better than in years past. Rather than the damsel-in-distress, we now have characters that are physically stronger and who take the villain head-on. Heroines are much more common but sadly […]
